Chapter 244: Elemental Witchcraft
The floating castle stayed above the clouds in the Arctic. The clouds here were sparse and thin.
Underneath them, the Arctic was cold and desolate, but above the clouds, the sun was bright and warm. Lu Zhiyu sat next to the window of the botanical garden, beside which a sphinx's eye projected various information for in front of him.
Gaia was responsible for gathering all of the information within Maria's World and presenting it to Lu Zhiyu. As such, it functioned like a huge electronic host. The sphinx was like an external terminal that was connected to Gaia.
Lu Zhiyu generally did not pay attention to the complex and useless information that had been collected from the whole world. After all, it wasn't necessary for him to know every single detail.
It would also complicate Lu Zhiyu's memory to be cluttered with such a vast amount of intel. Thus, Lu Zhiyu usually only viewed the most important information.
The sphinx that was in the wizard tower library was called Pyros. Every generation of Pyros was the same. As such, they all shared the same awarenesses, knowledges, and memories.
Lu Zhiyu sat and listened while Pyros rapidly went through its intel...
New moves from the Church of True God today. Stikua is only at level four. They dared not cross the Abyss World to Maria's World. Bitwalls could easily squeeze and suppress them to death. Some junior Abyss Wizards, underworld priests, and alchemist might be capable of dealing with them...
"Are these devil species beginning to appear in the central province? Does a wizard get the Book of the Devil? Lu Zhiyu asked Pyros.
"Yes, it happened a week ago, master! Alchemists are becoming more and more active, and their numbers are increasing. They have also played an important role in the development of the world. It seems that alchemists have a brighter future than the wizards," Pyros said.
"Are some Ghost Wizards making trouble? Regardless, the priests will exterminate them immediately," Lu Zhiyu said.
He rested in a rattan chair, watching the projection and listening to the report. There was news of human and orc incidents in Alan, as well as news about the elves and the Mermaid Kingdom.
At this stage, the system of extraordinary power had gradually been perfected. As such, many problems no longer needed Lu Zhiyu to worry about them. The system sufficient experience and ability to deal with them itself.
"Huh? An Elemental Wizard's advancement possibility! Is it Edward?" Lu Zhiyu immediately saw something worth noticing.
Just as Lu Zhiyu was ready to take a closer look, two winged girls rushed in. As they entered, their wings gradually folded and disappeared.
Delmedi rushed to Lu Zhiyu and said, "Dad, you said before that when we grew up, you would give the whole world to us. What does that mean?"
Verthandi then asked with a pretentious dignity, "Does it mean that we will be goddesses?"
Lu Zhiyu thought for a moment and said, "You have not reached level six yet. If you want to ascend to the throne of gods and light the divine fire, you must at least reach level seven. It's too early now!"
Verthandi opened her eyes wide. "So, after getting to level seven, can we be goddesses then?"
Delmedi jumped around excitedly. "What kind of goddess will we be? We must look dignified!"
Lu Zhiyu looked at them and expressed deep doubts as to whether or not they could be proper goddesses. "After reaching level seven, you have to pass my examination before you can enter the trial period to become a goddess!"
"What is the trial period?" Verthandi didn't quite understand him.
Lu Zhiyu pretended to look serious. "If you fail the trial, you will be fired!"
Verthandi and Delmedi made faces at Lu Zhiyu. "We will be the best and most qualified goddesses, then we will fire our dad! You're the most unqualified god, dad. You don't do anything all day!"
Lu Zhiyu put his hands behind his head and lay on the chair. "That doesn't sound half bad. After all, I am waiting to retire!"

After Edward Kelermo took over as fourth master of the wizard tower, the whole wizard tower was isolated from the outside world. Edward commanded all of the wizards to not interfere with the human world, let alone interfere in the politics and events of the human world.
After these orders were issued, the wizards gradually became more mysterious and isolated from the human world. This resulted in the wizards becoming mostly immersed in their own witchcraft research.
A byproduct of this was the minimizing of damage and harm that wizards suffered from human society, but it also made wizards more closed off and wary of humans, which was much different from the first generations of wizards, who constantly tried to interact with and help guide the human world.
As a result, this new generation of wizards had gradually lost their senses of identity, as well as the ability to successfully interact with human society. Thus, they lived in a small circle of wizards, without any desire to interfere with or influence human society.
This caused the influence of wizards in human society to gradually decline. Over the years, some past events had gradually been forgotten. People's attitudes towards wizards had also gradually changed from hatred and terror to passing curiosity.
Edward had been at level four for decades. Although he had not reached the level five, his study of witchcraft was beyond compare.
At the top of the wizard tower, rows of black boards were filled with mathematical and geometric symbols. All of the resources within the wizard tower were being used, and everyone was involved in the research efforts.
If they succeeded, it would be an incredible leap forward for wizards. Hence, everyone was working on this huge project day and night.
"Almost there! Yes, absolutely! We can definitely deduce the first level four witchcraft! Even if we don't transplant an extraordinary bloodline, we can still use it as an extraordinary witchcraft." Edward was so excited.
After all, he was the creator of the Dream Wizards. After reaching level four, Edward had found that the level four witchcraft space was very different from dream space. In other words, dream space was like an inferior version of witchcraft space.
Edward had then transformed the original dreamcraft. As long as the witchcraft model was constructed in the witchcraft space with mind power, all kinds of dreamcraft could be used much more easily than before.
Later, Edward thought that since dreamcraft could create a model of witchcraft, he could also possibly create an extraordinary elemental witchcraft! Originally, they could only control air, metal, sand and water through bloodline transplantation, but he began to wonder if these things could also be released in the form of witchcraft models. Thus, he happened across the possibility of Elemental Wizards!
Edward published two articles about Elemental Wizards and the possibility of elemental witchcraft, which immediately caused a stir throughout the wizard world. Unlike Blood Wizards, Dream Wizards, Ghost Wizards and alchemists, Elemental Wizards must have reached level four, which is an option for senior wizards.
Although it had nothing to do with most of the low-level wizards, the possibility of a bright future still excited countless wizards. Thus, the whole tower was involved in exploring the possibility of upgrading to Elemental Wizards.
Edward's first bout of research on Level four witchcraft was a relatively simple bloodline witchcraft, which dealt with the lanleng snake's ability to control water molecules. Wizards analyzed this ability over and over again, finally coming up with the first level four model of witchcraft, the Water Ball!
When Catherine and another mentor constructed the witchcraft model of the Water Ball on the square in front of the tower, a huge water ball floated in the sky! All of the wizards cheered in amazement and smiled with pride.
The Water Ball then turned into a heavy rain. At last, the wizards gradually explored level four. Now, they had broken the level four barrier and explored their ways into the future!
